AUGUSTA - The head of the National Council of Women&#39;s Organizations -- Martha Burk -- made her first visit to Augusta over the weekend to scout out protest sites near Augusta National Golf Club. <br> <br> NOW and other groups plan to protest the club&#39;s all-male membership during the Masters golf tournament in April. <br> <br> Augusta-Richmond County officials say protesters will not be allowed near the golf club&#39;s main gates because of dangerous traffic on Washington Road. But Burk says the alternative protest sites are too far from the club. <br> <br> Burk would not give any details about the planned protest.
